What a difference a day makes! We awoke to ice everywhere on Tuesday morning
here on South Bass Island. I got a call from Bob Glauser that he had five
eagles out at Scheeff East Point Preserve (w adults, 3 immatures) so I went
out to investigate and see what waterfowl remained in pockets of open water.
At Scheeff, there was a pocket of open water just past Buckeye and also
facing Kelleys Island. Common Goldeneye were the most abundant.
Common Goldeneye-hundreds
Mallards-100
Black Ducks 2
Redheads-hundreds
Ring-necked Ducks- 30
Buffleheads-4
Canada Geese-6
Tundra Swans 120
Mute Swans 2
Red-breasted Mergansers-6
Pintail 1
At Chapman's Point in the pocket of open water there:
Common Goldeneye
Redheads
Canvasback at least 4
Buffleheads 6
Mallards
Tundra Swans 4
Red-breasted Mergansers 4
Hooded Merganser 1
Bay and Pond frozen over.
A large flock of Canada Geese were on the lawn at Perry's Victory.
